Sickle cell anemia is a homozygous recessive disorder. This means, in order to have sickle cell anemia, you must have two copies

of the recessive allele (aa). Sickle cell anemia can be a lethal disease if proper treatment is not available.
Malaria is a disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people every year. More people die from malaria than sickle cell anemia worldwide. In malaria infested countries, those people who are carriers of the sickle cell allele (Aa) are provided a resistance to malaria, and therefore, are more likely to survive.


Based on the information given, choose the best hypothesis. 
A) Over time, the frequency of the dominant (A) allele would increase in malaria infested populations.

 B) In areas that do not have malaria, there would be an increase in the frequency of the sickle cell (a) allele.

 C) Due to natural selection, the frequency of the heterozygous (Aa) genotype would increase over time in malaria infested populations. 

D) Due to natural selection against the recessive (a) allele in malaria infested areas, there would be a decrease in the number of people who have sickle cell anemia.

Describe how a cellular response is reached when using G-protein coupled receptor.
ra1l [238]
When a signaling molecule binds to the GPCR, the G protein alpha subunit exchanges GDP for GTP. The alpha subunit dissociates from the beta and gamma subunits and interacts with other molecules, ultimately triggering a cellular response. ... GTP is hydrolyzed to GDP, and the signaling molecule comes off of the receptor.

Which technique involves injecting an animal with a radioactive molecule to see which part of the olfactory bulb is most activat
Rudiy27

The asnswer is 2DG also known as 2-Deoxy-D-glucose.  2DG is a glucose molecule that has the 2-hydroxyl group replaced by hydrogen, so that it cannot undergo further glycolysis. As such; it acts to competitively inhibit the production of glucose-6-phosphate from glucose at the phosphoglucoisomerase level (step 2 of glycolysis).

Resource partitioning results in: a move from the realized niche to the fundamental niche for both species. individuals of each
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a move from the fundamental niche to the realized niche for both species.

Explanation:

The niche of an organism is the functional role of the organism in the community or the ecosystem as a whole. This include the environment an organism lives and all the jobs it does in it.

Fundamental niche refers to all the possible functional roles of an organism in an ecosystem while realized niche refers to the specific roles the organism is limited to as a result of resource limitation, competition or other factors.

Resource partitioning involves the division of limited resources among organisms so as to avoid competition within the niche.

<em>Hence, resource partitioning causes a move from the fundamental niche of an organism to the realized  niche of that organism. </em>
